Well Done! Street Athletics 2009

Hi all.

Well what a busy summer it has been.

One of our highlights, as always, is doing the STREET ATHLETICS.

On Saturday we had a great time at the National Final, which was in Manchester for the 5th year running.

Seeing so many kids having fun and getting the opportunity to be involved in racing on the streets is a pleasure for me and Darren to see. This was our dream when we set this up 5 years ago and every year we still get the same amount of enjoyment and pleasure doing it. Hard work, yes. Worth it, you bet!

The full results from the final are on the street athletics website, so a big well done to all those who took part in the Street Athletics this year. 20 regional heats and 11 cities and towns were represented in the final on Saturday.

Also if you went along and got involved in the Street Athletics Coaching Community Day’s with Katharine and Les, then well done too! We hoped you picked up some good tips!

Big up all the helpers, supporters and sponsors of the event including Sony and Nike, I think this year has to be our biggest and best yet.

Katharine MC’d the event and she was kept busy, but everyone had fun, so thanks again to all those involved. See you on the streets in 2010!

Best wishes

Linford & Darren
